For You

A Veneer Over Me

I listened to old music today

Nostalgia like veneer over me couldn't keep feelings away

Now I know why I skip yesteryear and keep to my heart only the most dear

Remembrance like a token of love

May make my heart fly away

It was stolen yesterday

Is everything ok?

You sure?

For certain the swallows are loving new pictures of the heart

Remembrance like a token glove

I sense the toxic of another person

The biggest part in this is love

I hope you understand

I listened to old music today

There is no part that I didn't miss

Let me mend your brokenness

With wings that only comfort brings

Patterns in the sound are patterns in the heart

A new pattern is a fresh start

A heart prevailing
